It is important to note that when Open-AudIT determines a match ALL properties set to 'y' must match exactly in order for Open-AudIT to determine that the discovered device matches a device already in the database. If any of these properties do not match, then a new device entry will be created, which could result in duplicate device entries. In situations where properties are duplicated, for example a dbus_id is copied during a VM clone, then an existing device may incorrectly get overwritten/updated rather then a new entry being created resulting in missing devices. |
Devices will not be matched if their status is set to "deleted". Any other status will allow a match to occur.
These properties are stored in Open-AudIT's configuration; to access them select Admin -> Configuration -> Discovery from Open-AudIT's menu. The default values of 'y' and 'n' simply mean YES and NO. We will use YES and NO in the description, rather than 'y' and 'n'. The stored value should always be either a lowercase y or n.
The The properties and their default values are listed below.
